In recent practice Jack Cheetham’s work has been concerned with why communities attach importance to specific places and things, through interrogating paraphernalia associated with certain lifestyles and the re-contextualization of particular moments. Through versions of recycling, ornamentation and a kind of editing processes he questions contemporary ideas of masculinity, labour, tradition, storytelling, identity, education, humour, and fantasy. Often the outcomes of this process are purposefully eclectic, and disjointed from the next, mimicking the complex experiences and objects we encounter in this highly consumerist time.
